Product Manager (f/m/d) - Hippos (Remote in Germany)
Join to apply for the Product Manager (f/m/d) - Hippos (Remote in Germany) role at Synera
Our mission at Synera is to redefine how engineers work - making automation and AI co-workers a natural part of product development. As a Product Manager, you’ll shape how next-generation engineering teams design, automate, and collaborate. You won’t just build software, you’ll help build the future of how software builds hardware.
What You Will DoAt Synera, we build empowered product teams: cross-functional groups of Product Managers, Designers, Engineers, and AI Experts who own outcomes, not outputs. We don’t run a feature factory. We trust our teams to discover the most impactful problems and deliver solutions that customers love and the business values.
As a discovery-led Product Manager, you’ll collaborate closely with UX, Engineering, and AI to shape customer outcomes - not just ship features. You’ll regularly engage with leading customers such as BMW, NASA, and Miele to uncover their needs and pain points, guiding our R&D efforts to create products that truly make a difference.
You’ll be part of a highly versatile Scrum team called "Hungry Hippos" with Robert, Niklas, Andrey, Petro, Mark, and Bhushan that designs automation solutions helping engineers save hours on repetitive CAE tasks, giving them time back for real innovation.
By joining us, you’ll help turn our bold product vision into repeatable customer value, shaping the future of engineering with Synera.
- You lead discovery and validation by engaging with internal stakeholders (e.g. Customer Success, Sales) and directly with customers to uncover user needs and pain points.
- You collaborate with the Hippos – our cross‑functional team of product, design, and engineering experts – who empower our customers to digitalize their work by owning the nodes – our building blocks.
- You frame hypotheses and define measurable product outcomes, such as streamlining customer onboarding, increasing node adoption, or discovering multi‑agent workflow opportunities.
- You join the rituals such as daily stand‑ups, review meetings and retros. You clarify scope and customer value during the implementation.
- You own a problem space, not a backlog: you deeply understand users, map opportunities, and co‑create strategy with design and engineering.
- You continuously prioritize and refine opportunities with your team, balancing customer value, technical feasibility and business impact.
- You align with leadership on product goals and success metrics (e.g. adoption, retention, conversion) to ensure meaningful, outcome‑driven progress.
- You have a clear understanding of our platform, customers, and workflows.
- You independently run at least one end‑to‑end discovery cycle: identifying user pain points, validating hypotheses and sharing insights that shape roadmap priorities.
- You ship one initiative that measurably improves customer experience or activation (e.g. increases activation rate, reduces onboarding time).
- You own a core product area and deliver measurable business or user impact (e.g. retention).
- You establish a healthy, predictable discovery‑delivery rhythm with your team: balancing learning, experimentation and shipping.
- You are recognized internally as a key voice in product strategy and prioritization, actively shaping discussions on where to invest for customer and business impact.
- Opportunity to challenge the status quo and help strengthen Synera as a leader in agent‑driven engineering.
- Take ownership from day one, driving meaningful outcomes with real impact.
- Work with exceptional engineers and designers united by a passion for solving real‑world problems.
- Flexible working: you decide when & where to work (as long as you have a residency in Germany).
- Home office setup support + access to our office in Bremen.
- Personal development budget of €2 000 to attend conferences and trainings or buy interesting books to improve in an area of your choice.
- No counting of vacation days; we trust all team members to decide what’s best for them and for the company.
- Company fitness with Wellpass and mental health…
